tanguyr thanks. I tried the POJO link but got an 404 (page not found). I know about the concept of consuming and publishing webservices from CFMX. But how do I find which services are offered by the owner of my particular SAP inplementation? Simply calling uddi.sap.com (the public uddi directory for SAP) gives me a 404. I need a few webservices to get/send data from /to SAP, do something with the return code etc. Where can I find which ones to use?
